How do they do it? What inspires them? How do they fit it in? What is their recipe?

I'm so excited about the artists on my podcast! In the course of my journey, I've had the privilege to meet fantastic women in a number of creative fields. They have individually found the path that's worked for them and crafted their businesses around their creativity. But how did they do it? What inspired them? How did they fit it into what they were already doing? What is their recipe? I'll be chatting with them about these questions, and others, and sharing their stories on this podcast.
